Wastewater Characterization Survey, Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico

Abstract

A wastewater characterization survey was conducted at Holloman Air Force Base (AFB), New Mexico, from 12-23 August 1991 by personnel from Armstrong Laboratory (AL) located at Brooks AFB, Texas. Influent samples to the Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) were collected and analyzed for various parameters. The sample results will be used by HQ TAC/DESU for the design of a new Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) at Holloman AFB. Specific sampling sites around base were also sampled for various parameters. These sample results were intended for use by Holloman AFB personnel to identify toxic discharges they may have in the wastewater collection system. To support these organizations and their missions, several industrial facilities are located at the base: aircraft and vehicle washracks, corrosion control facilities, and equipment maintenance facilities. An electroplating facility is also located at the base, but the electroplating operations have been discontinued.
